Long Point County Park FL
Has anyone ever been here? Is it a suitable alternative to Sebastian Inlet SP campground? They are practically on top of each other.

I'm heading there as soon as I can motivated to get on the road this AM. :B
It will be my 29th trip there. It's a great place if you have a boat, since many of their sites are right on the water. Many ( but not all) have access to pull your boat up to the site. They also have a boat ramp.
They have a very small pond for swimming, which is open for swimming, or sometimes not open for swimming ?
There is also a small playground, with relatively new equipment, which is currently "closed for safety reasons" ?
The utility hookups are relatively new. They had been destroyed a few years back, when a hurricane tore the park up. There is no shade, if that's a consideration.
Years ago when I had a pop up, and didn't bring a boat, I didn't like this park for that reason.
My son was supposed to be coming up this evening, with the boat. The boat just got out of the shop yesterday, after having fuel issues corrected (again). There are just too many other issues with the boat, so he's not coming up. I'll be there myself with no boat, but it's just for a couple of nights. It also cost $45 to cancel a reservation on short notice, so I might as well go. :B
I have never camped at Sebastian Inlet S.P., so I can't help you on that one. I'm pretty sure none of their sites have water access, although some overlook the water.
I noticed you're from Ohio, so you're possibly thinking of visiting during the winter. This place fills up every year with snowbirds, so reserving a site in that time period could be a problem, if you don't get one far enough in advance. This time of year, it's relatively empty during the week, but fills up every weekend.
